Ballad Of Mary Magdalene Richard Shindell
[C] [Am] [G] [F] [C] [Am] [G] [F] [C] [Am] [G] [F] [C] [Am] [G] [F]
[C]My name is [Am]Mary [F]Magdalene
I come from [G]Palesti[C]ne [F] [G]
[C]Please [Am]excuse these [F]rags I'm in
But I've fallen on [G]hard [C]times but
[F]Long a[G]go I [F]had my [C]work [Dm]When [F]I was in [G]prime [F] [G]
[C]But I gave it [Am]up and a[F]ll for love
It was his c[G]areer or [C]mine
[Am]Jesus l[G]oved me t[F]his I k[C]now
[F]Why on [Am]earth did I [Dm]ever let him [G]go
He was [Am]always [G]faithful
He was [F]always [C]kind
But he [F]walked off [Dm]with this [G]heart of [C]mine [C] [Am] [G] [F] [C] [Am] [G] [F]
[C]A love like [Am]this [F]comes but once
This I [G]do be[C]lieve [F] [G]
[C]And I'll not [Am]see his [F]like again
As I [G]live and [C]breathe and
[F]I'm sorry [G]if I [F]might o[C]ffend
[Dm]But [F]I will never [G]see [F] [G]
[C]How the tender[Am]ness I [F]shared with him
Became a [G]here[C]sy
[C]I [Am]remember [F]nights we spent Whispe[G]ring our [C]creed[F] [G]
[C]Our ritu[Am]als our [F]sacrament
The stars [G]our cano[C]py [F]There ben[G]eath an [F]olive tr[C]ee
[Dm]We'd offer [F]up our [G]plea [F] [G]
[C]God's [Am]creation [F]innocent
His arms [G]surrounding [C]me
